So Tembec asking for extensive concessions in the areas of:
Wages
Pension Contributions
Benefits
Overtime Rate
Vacation Pay
Sunday Premiums
Are they Tembec just waiting to get enough pulp wood and chips and then going to force a Strike why else would they ask for so bigger cuts do not trust them they do not care about us

the quote by your guest, unionguy, is from USW Wood Council Chairperson, Bob Matters. The quote "Current layoffs and mill shutdowns are not being caused by union wages and benefits. They are being caused by the steep downturn and disappearance of lumber markets" and the entire article is on the Elko Echo website at elkoecho.blogspot.com/Tembec West will be releasing their operational plan for the month of August next week. |
